• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message AMDP_CMP_CHECKS004 - Parameter &1 was added to method &2 ?

  The SAP error message AMDP_CMP_CHECKS004 indicates that a parameter has been added to a method in an ABAP Managed Database Procedure (AMDP) but is not being handled correctly in the calling context. This typically occurs when there is a mismatch between the method signature in the class definition and the implementation or when the method is called without the required parameters.
  Cause:
  
  Method Signature Mismatch: The method signature in the class definition may have been changed (e.g., a new parameter was added) but the implementation or the calling code has not been updated accordingly.
  Outdated References: If the method was modified (e.g., parameters added) and the calling program or other methods that invoke this method have not been updated, it can lead to this error.
  Transport Issues: If the changes were transported to a different system (e.g., from development to quality assurance) without the corresponding updates to the calling code, this error can occur.
  
  Solution:
  
  Update Method Calls: Check all instances where the method is called and ensure that the new parameter is being passed correctly. Update the calling code to include the new parameter.
  Check Method Implementation: Ensure that the method implementation matches the updated signature in the class definition. If the method was changed, make sure the implementation reflects those changes.
  Recompile: After making changes, recompile the class and any dependent objects to ensure that all references are updated.
  Check Transport Requests: If the issue arose after a transport, verify that all related objects (both the method and its callers) were included in the transport request.
  
  Related Information:
  
  AMDP (ABAP Managed Database Procedures): This is a feature in SAP that allows you to write database procedures in ABAP that can be executed directly in the database layer, improving performance for certain operations.
  Method Signature: The method signature includes the method name, parameters, and their types. Any changes to this signature require corresponding updates in all places where the method is called.
  Debugging: Use the ABAP debugger to trace the execution and identify where the method is being called without the required parameters.
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to resolve the AMDP_CMP_CHECKS004 error and ensure that your method calls are consistent with the method definitions.
